Dear Parents/Guardians: Welcome to our 8th Grade Reading course, and thank you for taking the time to familiarize yourself with this online learning environment.
The ability to use language - to read, write, speak and listen effectively - is one of the most essential skills your child will gain in school. Reading helps your child open the doors to new worlds of learning and imagination. Writing and speaking effectively allows your child to communicate clearly with others.
The reading and writing in this course represents a variety of carefully selected materials. Upon completion of this course, our goal is that your child will become more proficient and confident in his or her ability to use reading and language. We also expect that your child gains an appreciation for various types of literature.
As the parent, you play a critical role in influencing how much and how well your child will read and write. As with any skill, reading and writing improve with practice. It is essential to the academic success of your child that you become a partner in the learning process. By maintaining high expectations and ongoing encouragement, you will assist in ensuring your child experiences many pleasurable and successful learning opportunities.
